I once experienced an unforgettable trip to Gloucester to see some of the world’s most beautiful and exciting animals in their own habitat(棲息地), the North Atlantic Ocean.

After a long trip by bus, we got on the ship. After a while, we stopped and everyone began to shout because we saw a humpback whale（座頭鯨）. It was wonderful. Sometimes, whales came so close to the ship that you thought you could easily touch them.

While we were watching the whales, a guide was giving us some information about them, She told us that we saw only two kinds of whales- 50 foot humpback whales (singing whales) and 70-foot finback whales(the second largest whales on earth). She also said we could easily recognize a whale by its tail because every whale has a different kind of tail just like people have different fingerprints.

They all have names,and on this trip we saw “Salt” and “Pepper”, two whales named by a biologist and a fisherman. They were swimming toghter all the time.

I took twenty-seven photos,but it was very hard to take them because the whales were quick and stayed on the surface of the ocean just for a short time. It was really something. It was one of the chances that a person hardly ever experiences in life, but I had that chance.

My husband and children think they are very lucky that they are living and that it’s Christmas again. They can’t see that we live on a dirty street in a dirty house among people who aren’t much good. But Johnny and children can’t see this. What a pity it is that our neighbours have to make happiness out of all this dirt. I decided that my children must get out of this. The money that we’ve saved isn’t nearly enough.

The McGaritys have money but they are so proud. They look down upon the poor. The McGarity girl just yesterday stood out there in the street eating from a bag of candy(糖果)while a ring of hungry children watched her. I saw those children looking at her and crying in their hearts; and when she couldn’t eat any more she threw the rest down the sewer(下水道). Why, is it only because they have money ? There is more to happiness than money in the world, isn’t there?

The Problem with Television

Now I can’t watch television but a little years ago I used to watch it every night. I was

often a little tired after a day’s work and watch TV demands very little effort. Unfortunate, there

are too many people among my family. Some wanted to see the programme while others preferred

another. I am happy with any programme but the others spent a lot time arguing and there was no

way of settle the matter except by selling the TV set. Now everyone at home reads instead.

To their surprise, they found the lecture given by the famous professor easy ______.

  A. to be understood     B. to understand       C. understanding       D. understood
